The assertion in question is:

104
105                             if (c & 0x80)
106                                     break;
107                             }
108
109             ASSERT(key - (UCHAR*) indexNode < 14);
110             nextNode = (Btn*) (key + length);

The participating variables are:

(gdb) print key
$10 = (UCHAR *) 0xb729b948 'л' <repeats 200 times>...
(gdb) print key[0]
$12 = 204 'л'
(gdb) print indexNode
$13 = (Btn *) 0xb729b90b
(gdb) print (UCHAR*) indexNode
$17 = (unsigned char *) 0xb729b90b ""
(gdb) print (UCHAR) indexNode
$18 = 11 '\v'

How to repeat:
A simplifed test case will hopefully follow...

This is all that is required to reproduce this bug:

CREATE TABLE t1 (
	pk INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT,
	int_key INTEGER,
	PRIMARY KEY (pk),
	KEY (int_key)
) ENGINE=Falcon;

SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE int_key < 5 ORDER BY int_key LIMIT 1;
[11 Jun 2008 22:06] Ann Harrison
The problem is that the index walking code doesn't handle the case
where the starting value is higher than any stored value.  This shows
up when there are no records and (I suspect) when all values are
lower than the starting value.

The fix is simple.  In WalkIndex::nextNode, check for END_LEVEL
[11 Jun 2008 22:55] Kevin Lewis
Ann has a fix and will create a patch tomorrow.
[30 Jun 2008 19:28] Philip Stoev
The fix provided by Ann appears to fix the crash:

<quote>
in WalkIndex::getNextNode(void)
you need to add the "else" statement shown below:

if (first)
{
first = false;
recordNumber = node.getNumber();

if (recordNumber >= 0)
return recordNumber;
else if (recordNumber == END_LEVEL)
return -1;
}

Please let me know if a simplifed test case is required.

This last backtrace was obtained using the mysql-6.0 tree, which does not contain Ann's fix.
[10 Jul 2008 15:27] Ann Harrison
Fix has been pushed to the shared mysql-6.0-falcon tree.
[22 Aug 2008 20:49] Kevin Lewis
This fix is in version 6.0.6
[28 Sep 2008 13:06] Philip Stoev
This bug was observed again in 6.0-falcon-team . Note that the server was started with --falcon-page-size=2K and that the WHERE clause contains a relatively long predicate on an utf8 column.

Documented as follows in the 6.0.6 changelog:

        Queries with complex conditions in the WHERE clause on Falcon tables
        when falcon_page_size was set to a low value could cause the server to
        crash.
